Welcome to Write Around Portland.

Through a unique model of writing workshops coupled with published anthologies and community readings, Write Around Portland helps people transform their lives and our city.

Our workshops are offered at no-charge to people living with HIV/AIDS, veterans living with PTSD, survivors of domestic violence, adults and youth in recovery from alcohol and drug addictions, low-income seniors, people in prison, teen parents and others who may not have access to writing in community because of income, isolation or other barriers.

"Write Around Portland helped me to develop a sense of inner confidence. We really support each other's words, we point out the good stuff. In this workshop I feel valued, not just as a writer, but as a person, regardless of my income or disability."
